5 Questions
What happens to the specific resistance of pure metals with an increase in temperature?
It decreases
How is conductivity defined in relation to specific resistance?
It is the reciprocal of specific resistance
On what factors does the resistance of a conductor depend?
Material and temperature
What is the purpose of the meter bridge in Experiment 3?
To verify the laws of combination of resistances in series and in parallel
If a wire is stretched to twice its length, how does its specific resistance change?
No change, as specific resistance depends on the material of the wire
